WHAT IS TRUTH?
John 18:38
I first learned
the importance of truth
at my mother’s knee
My children
learned it at mine
Life has taught me
truth is truth, even
if no one believes it
if no one wants to believe it
if every man is a liar
What’s true is true, even
if millions is spent
to disprove it
if it’s argued against
lobbied against
debated against
railed against
voted against
legislated against
Truth Is
absolute—
even if it’s watered down
to make it acceptable
skirted around
to soften its appeal
lubed with oil
so it goes down
nice and easy
sugar coated
to make it palatable
even if it looks
soooo, soooo good
Truth is Truth
whether it’s popular
or unpopular
…even
in the face
of persecution
Pilate asked,
What is truth?
The Psalmist wrote,
The sum of God’s word
is truth
Jesus said,
I Am the Truth
He also said,
Everyone on the side
of truth
listens to Me
I believe the supreme
Truth is a Man
and His unchanging Word
…even though
He be crucified
Jesus—
Salvation Truth
Resurrection Truth
Living Truth
Truth—
I can stand up for
